In Young's double slit experiment, red light of wavelength \(6000 Å\) is used and the \(n\)th bright fringe is obtained at a point \(P\) on the screen. Keeping the same setting, the source of light is replaced by green light of wavelength \(5000 Å\) and now \((n+1)\) th bright fringe is obtained at the point \(P\) on the screen. The value of \(n\) is

  1. A \(4\)
  2. B \(5\)
  3. C \(6\)
  4. D \(3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(5\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Fringe width, \(\beta_G=n \frac{\lambda D}{d}\) And for \(n\) number of fringes, \(\beta_G=n \frac{\lambda D}{d} \text { or, } \beta_R=n \frac{\lambda D}{d}\) For \((n+1)\) th number of fringes,…
